Tatania.... Have I told you Lately... that I LOVE YOU???
Awesome coverage!! You are my HERO!!!!
It's mutual Robin! Loved all your insights during the season. I don't get VH1
so I'll have to try and catch the interview on You Tube. The preview is SO funny and Adam shows us another talent - very gifted comedian/actor.

Kara couldn't keep her big trap shut on The View today - I think she just babbles whatever comes into her head - and couldn't wait to let Adam make his own announcement in RS next week. Not that he has to announce anything or owes anyone information on his sex life.
Did everyone see Kris at Disney World today? So cute. He and Adam have such a bromance going and he talks about him in all his interviews. You gotta love Kris too:

Kris Allen on side-mouth singing, lip-synching, and calling Danny a 'jerk'
May 29, 2009, 03:10 PM | by Missy Schwartz
You know what's great about the Internets? They are infinite! See, I wrote this article on Kris Allen for the current issue of Entertainment Weekly and had the pleasure of spending a good chunk of Memorial Day with him in New York City. We roamed around Central Park, where he got a kick out of visiting the John Lennon "Imagine" memorial; we hit Rockefeller Center, where a woman not only asked for a photo but requested that he take off his shades in said photo (he obliged); and we rode the subway (F train, direction downtown, in case you care) because he'd never been on one before. (Twas also his first ever trip to the Big Apple.) Problem is, there's only so much I could fit into two pages of the magazine. So I hereby offer you some of the morsels that did not make it into the magazine story. (It's the first of a new PopWatch series we're calling "Bonus Points.") Behold, your Idol sounding off everything from calling Danny Gokey a "jerk" to Christians rejecting Adam Lambert. Enjoy!
On the Idols having to lip-synch for many of the early group performances.That whole lip-synch thing, we were so upset about it. They were like, "It's hard to blend the 10 voices" or whatever. After a while, we complained enough and Adam's pretty good at taking a stand. We'd be like, "Yeah, Adam! Go, Adam!" He would always lead the pack. He was the first one to be bold and say something [to the producers].
On his (let's admit it, pretty darn adorable) habit of jutting his jaw to the side when hittin' the big notes. My friends and my wife make fun of me for it all the time. That's [one of] the reasons I can't watch my performances, 'cause I see that and I'm like, "Oh gosh. Don't do that." I don't even know why, it's just a thing. I hate it. But
I've always done it. I've done it forever. I've tried to change it. It just won't happen. It's just emotionmy mouth happens to go to the side. I thought it was so funny when we did the results show and Anoop made fun of me. That was hilarious. They were like, "Is that okay?" And I was like, "Totally! I don't care. It's funny!"
On speculation that he and Adam Lambert painted their nails as a campaign to get a Kradam finale. (i.e. at the exclusion of Danny Gokey)That's not what we were saying. This is what we were saying: There was this tabloid thing that came out about me and Adam, about how we don't get along because I'm this conservative kid from Arkansas and he's this L.A. liberal guy. Which, I could be nothing less than conservative. I'm just from Arkansas. And they were like, "He's cranky because he misses his wife and Adam's nail polish is all over the place and they can't get along." And we were like, "That's so stupid. That's the stupidest thing." We just didn't want people to think that we didn't get along. Because we're really great, great friends.
On calling Gokey a "jerk" on Larry King Live last Friday, in response to Gokey saying he had picked Allen to win.That was a joke. Seriously, we're all really good friends and we joke around with each other so much. It just came out. He's like my brother as well. We've become so close. We're around each other so much, we just joke around a lot. I hope people didn't read it differently. I'm sure the Danny haters will. [Slips into a mean, angry voice] "Kris hates Danny!" It's so weird that everyone hangs on to every word you say. But I'm not gonna change. I'm not gonna not joke around with Danny Gokey.
On the PR department schooling the Idols on what they can and can't say on the air. After Allison Iraheta joked about not cutting herself
Oh gosh. All the PR people were like, "Oh gosh. Oh, Allison don't say that on TV!" There's a couple things that we don't say. She doesn't say "cut myself." I said "retard" one time. When I was talking about myself, I said, "I felt like a retard." Never say that again! And then, I don't say "benches" because it sounds like "*****es." [Allen's slight twang does transform the word into something like "binches," which is dangerously close to "*****es"] I don't say that anymore
until now! I'm sittin' on these binches! [Laughs]
On his frustration with Christians who wouldn't accept Adam Lambert.There [were all these rumors] about how all the conservative, Christian people that would vote for me hate Adam and never want him to win because of who he is. Oh, it was so frustratingreally bad, because we are really good friends.
Why can't everyone get along? It never made any sense for me to judge anyone, who they are. It frustrates me that people can't get along with people because of their differences. And I'll tell you what, especially Christians. Christians have a hard time accepting people like Adamliberal, from L.A., looks different, maybe acts a certain way. He's a great, great guy. They don't even give him a chance. And it's frustrating because I come from that. A lot of my friends are not that way, which I appreciate, but a lot of people in Arkansas or in the South or wherever are that way. We really hope that our relationship can be an inspiration to people. I could go on about that forever.
The End.
Look for my full-length feature story on Kris Allen in the June 5 issue of Entertainment Weekly, on newsstands now. And, PopWatchers, check back this weekend for all new episodes of Idolatry, in which Michael Slezak outdoes himself (again) interviewing Kris Allen.
I've worked hard all week sewing and painting their costumes, and now I might miss it. That was why I didn't buy tickets in the first place. When I told the boys I was passing up seeing DC for them, they both said "No way, Mom! We don't care if you miss the play. You've got to go see David Cook!!!" So, I decided to be BAD MOM, went to get tickets, and they were sold out.
I had given up going until today when my friend sent me an email to saying she got one for me!!!!!
I loved it when Bikini Girl was put in her place. 
I can totally picture somebody with a mullet saying that. 
Me too!!!!!
Just because he is a celebraty now doesn't mean he has to be the voice for all of the non celebraty people in the world who are gay. I think it takes a bigger person to just live their life and not worry about wether people now about something. It isn't like straight people go around wearing a sign shouting out that I'm straight.
